IRS tax lien help. Get it out of your way.
A federal tax lien can stall a home sale, block a refinance, or follow you around in public records. Depending on your situation, it can often be released, withdrawn, or moved aside. We figure out which and handle it.
Sound familiar?
- You got a letter saying the IRS filed a Notice of Federal Tax Lien (often Letter 3172).
- You're trying to sell or refinance, and the title company found a lien.

- You paid off the balance, but the lien still shows up.

Common questions
Does a tax lien hurt my credit score?
The major credit bureaus no longer include tax liens on credit reports. But liens are public records, and lenders, title companies and landlords can still find them.
What's the difference between a release and a withdrawal?
A release ends the lien but the public record shows it existed. A withdrawal removes the public notice entirely, which is better for your record.
I just got a lien letter. Is there a deadline?
Yes. The lien notice letter usually gives you 30 days to request a hearing about the lien. Contact us quickly so that option stays open.
